Well depending how fine the lace is, I would probably secure it to a cardboard surface, and press the mold material onto the lace. After it cures, you should be able to fill it over and peel off the lace for your lace relief mold. (suggestion is to try it on some non precious lace, to see if it works for you. Also depends on how large of a mold you are making) personally, I really like using this mold material for clay, polymer, PMC, & paper pulp! Have fun with your design! Cheers

I have used on glass and most other products....I have no problem with it. You may be using to much putty. minimal amount,small pea size , placed at 12 3, 6, and 9, is usually how I place small pea size. Hold object gently and push down.... If glass is vase full of water ... I have found it will not &lt; work. Hope this helps!

I did a 10", 8" tiered lace cake with butterflies and angels and still had enough for another cake just like it, however, it does depend on your molds. It is a terrific product.

I have bought generic molds. Some worked, most did not. Sugarveil can be frustrating to use. I am sure with the sugar veil molds, it would be a lot easier.

The Easy Mold Silicone Rubber can be used to make molds out of non-hardening moldeing clays as lon as the clay is sulfur-free. This is a two-component rubber which does not require a separate hardener. The Castin' Craft Mold Release can be found as item B000XAWQJU. Blick Art Materials does ship to Puerto Rico.

I found the product gets 'thicker' within 30 minutes or so. If you are adding charms, jewels etc (inside the resin) you should have plenty of working time. I usually allow mine to dry 24 hours before removing from the mold.

Yes, you can. I have done it several times with highly detailed pieces, and they turned out wonderfully! The resin just popped right out with no problem/residue left, so I was able to use the same mold multiple times.

Plastilina stays very very soft and can be difficult when casting with plaster because of the heat it generates while drying. This modeling clay is much harder to start with but can be softened in the oven which I personally really like. Also if you are making something which will be two or more molds, I would recommend the monster clay as the plastilina is just too soft.

I think this resin would be great for such a project. I would lightly glue embellishments, stones, shells with a dab of E600 glue or Mod Podge before pouring resin, things have a way of moving in resin and some items have a tendency to float to the top. There is another resin that is jewelry specific, I think this resin would work fine for your project and recommend it highly above any other brand. This can also be bought in gallon bottles not so much at the craft stores but here on Amazon. if you have big projects, do the math it might save you some just divided the oz. by the price and compare. Best of luck. I think this resin would be great for such a project.

no, this is the "melt and pour " method, the lye base is already made, i would suggest a good soap making book, and just gather your recipe items.

I have yet to use mold release with my silicone molds but I've not done anything too big or too detailed. If I was doing something with a lot of tiny intricate details I would hit it with some mold release as opposed to risking it not turning out. I hope that helps.

Hi Dave, It was my first time to try a clay bar. I did my home work about how to use it. One guy said, to cut a small section. I think i used 1/4 to half a bar for a hole car. I think it really depends on how much it pull off. While you use it, you knead and keep reusing. I have a newer car, so not a lot of stuff embedded. I also learned that you can use it on glass. They say to put it in a zip lock bag so it doesn't dry up when no in use.Hope this helped..

I actually believe that Sculpey has a little mold such as this one, that is just arms and legs. Search here and also look at your local craft stores such as Michael's, AC Moore or any such craft store. Good luck.

I haven't used the generic molds because the sugar veil molds fold back and are easy to release the lace. When I use the oil spray on molds, the lace is the color of the spray. Generic molds require oil spay. I think it would be great to try one and see how it works. Then please let the rest of us know. I have had good results with the sugar veil molds. They are expensive.

The silk flower would more the likely be fine. The floating candle not so much. if you want the floating candle then I would suggest glass stones. The beads look better with less water after they expand. I put a white submersible battery tea candle in the bottom and it lit them up very nicely.

I don't know, I've never done it. It sounds like a great idea. I looked on the glitter container itself and there is no mention of what it's made out of and I only have the containers. I didn't find anything at their website, but Walmart.com had a question/answer section and it asked if you could use the glitter on fabrics, which is the kind that you can heat from what little I understand, lol. And the very vague answer that was given was "This can be used on any craft product." Also found this older glitter how to... http://www.beadsandbeading.com/blog/glitter-how-to-polymer-clay-supplies-for-bead-and-jewelry-making/494/ Hopefully others will have your info.
